Brian Shute has been cool enough to send over more shots from the early and mid 80’s days of BMX racing in NJ, PA and the east coast. He also scanned in some memorabilia. One of which is a funny as hell note left by Franco Perrino when Brian was riding for Dic’s bike shop… […]
Tim has been super busy on the scanner the past couple days and sent me some more stuff over. I got this on my blackberry today and immediately knew it HAD to be on the site ASAP. Below are the scans from the 1977 NBL Northeast National Program in Millville. This IS New Jersey roots […]
Another OBMXG (original BMX gangsta, lol) signed up the other day and told me he had a bunch of old school shots from NJ, wanted to know if I wanted to see them… OF COURSE! Another one of the great guys who raced all the way at the beginning here in NJ has opened up […]

Coming out of ABA NJ District 3, Brian Shute would dominate the southern NJ scene for several years in the mid 80’s. He went on to become pro and left the scene near the end of 1987. For more on Brian click here. He was good enough to let me copy a ton of old […]
Brian Shute. In the mid to late 80’s a new wave of racers were coming into play in NJ. Brian was one of them. Hailing from the south NJ area, he was a local to Clayton BMX and Deptford. Undisputably one of the fastest riders to come out of NJ in that time, he would […]
